How to know the full Indicator parameters

[zreboo]

Hi All,

I've trend Indicator it has 3 inputs, I try to use it in EA with iCustom Function when i test it successfully load But it's not working  , I think there are other parameters not shown in the indicator inputs.

My question: is there a method to know the full parameters of the successfully loaded indicator ?

Like code or function that import all parameters of the indicator.

Thanks in advance >

No way an indicator has hidden inputs. You are probably getting wrong index or something else but... You should check with data window to know what values to expect and you can debug with Print();

There is also the chance that the indicator just draws over the chart without using any buffers. Than indicator will surely be loaded correctly but won't deliver any values.

“Doesn't work” is meaningless — just like saying the car doesn't work. Doesn't start, won't go in gear, no electrical, missing the key, flat tires — meaningless.

Hi  Nikolay, Thanks for your time .

it's a free indicator with ex4 type ,it auto draws a trend line  on the chart that shows the good positions to buy or sell, When using the indicator in manual trading, its value appears on the chart , I tried to use it's value to open trades with RSI indicator, i was think  iCustom function have a wrong or missing  parameter ,After I test it again without the templet it shows the indicator removes itself when start test.

I will attach the indicator here, I hope you benefit from it.

Hi  William,  Thanks for your time .

I wanted to ask about the possibility of querying the full parameter of the current indicator on the chart in order to use it correctly with the iCustom function especially with the indicators with ex4 file type whose full parameter cannot be known.

I tried to make the question specific so that you can direct me to a specific topic or function or script that might help me.

Hi zzeboo, I have check with your indicator and the case is as I supposed. It doesnt have any buffers and draws on chart. Sadly it also makes objects with OBJPROP_SELECTABLE false which won't allow you to read values from objects created. So this indicator is not usable to any EA. When you slide the mouse over the bars in the selected zones it just doesn't change anything with the buffer. And All objects are not in the Objects section.
